1 – A father walks into the nursery,
drawn by his young daughter crying uproariously in her crib. It's
nighttime, so the only light is coming from the nightlight.
LETTERING NOTE: The baby's crying
should be large to emphasize its volume. The balloon could also
potentially extend beyond either side of the panel, getting cut by
the gutters to show just how loud (and neverending) it is.
BABY: Waaaaaugh!
FATHER: Aww, what's the matter, my
little miracle?
2 – The father picks his daughter out
of the crib, a warm – if tired – look on his face.
LETTERING NOTE: The crying can be
getting quieter and smaller as the baby is calmed by her father's
presence.
BABY: maaugh hm-maaugh
FATHER: Shhh. It's okay. Daddy's
here.
3 – The father holds his daughter in
front of himself. Their faces may be so close as to be touching
(possibly foreheads together). The father smiles; the baby continues
to calm down.
BABY: >tt<
FATHER: You just want to spend some
extra time with your Daddy, don't you?
4 – The father raises his daughter
up, holding her at a level higher than himself. She throws up, the
vomit flying down towards him. He doesn't really have time to react
to this – maybe he starts to grimace, but he's not going to avoid
this fate.
FATHER: That's okay. I just want to
spend time with yo--
BABY: blaa!
5 – The father stands in the room,
baby still above his head, vomit dripping down his face. His
expression isn't exactly readable (especially due to said vom).
NO COPY
6 – The father brings his daughter
down, holding her with one arm and cleaning his face off with the
other. Although he's not exactly impressed, he doesn't blame his
daughter for this.
FATHER (1): I love you.
FATHER (2): I do.
FATHER (3): But I can't wait for you to
stop doing that.
